I find it hard to suggest an outstanding 5 star review for any fine dining establishment as there always seems to be something missing to deserve such a strong accolade. Our experience at Helena's for a key industry retirement dinner couldn't have been at a better place. Michelle looked after us for the evening & did an absolutely beautiful job suggesting dishes & meeting our needs. The food was exquisite & the wine selection perfect. Helena's definitely is in our top 5 restaurants Coast to Coast. Thank you for such a great night....we'll be back for sure!
best regards

Incredibly attentive & friendly staff & the most excellent meal you will have in a while! Everything was outstanding. I had the gazpacho to start & the Alaskan black cod followed. It was so delicate surrounded by a silky sweet potato mash that was so delectable that I wiped my plate down with some bits of bread to not leave anything behind. It was phenomenal. Bravo!

dined with a group of 8. Encouraged to take their sampling course....approx 9 courses. Food was outstanding. Service was subpar. Total experience was over 4 hours long (way too long). some servings were explained & others just placed on table with no communication.
